Skya

Skya (スカイア Sukaia) is a main character in the anime and manga series Hetalia: Axis Powers. She is the Chieftain's daughter, hailing from the Cherokee Tribe, and has retained her culture from times long-ago; as noted by Corthe Star (Anne), she is one of only a few hundred immigrants, and the only one to gain immortality, besides the late Empress consort, Anne of Battenberg who gave up her immortality to reunite with her murdered children in the afterlife. Although born as the daughter of the Cherokee Tribe`s Chieftain and his wife, Skya displays an innate skill for mystical rituals, and carries abundant magic, which flows through her veins; she was protected by the other members of her tribe due to possessing this ability. After immigrating to the Empire of Corthe Star in 12 August, 1430 (when she was eleven-years-old), she met the young Sora (the capital personification of the Empire, as it was known at the time); the two eventually fell in love and Skya later married her in a private wedding ceremony. This private wedding ceremony was watched by the suspicious common masses, who saw her as a foreigner; her natural kindness and charm would eventually win them over. Though she was disliked by her own tribe, who saw her homexuality as a curse, the adoring common masses of her home praised her and her rituals; the fact that she had magic sweetened the deal even further. At the time of her marriage in 12 January, 1439 (at age nineteen), she was given the titles; Heiress Consort of the Republic, Heiress Consort of the Presidential House, Princess Consort of the Empire of Dreams, and Duchess Consort of the Sky Palace; she is one of the most high-ranking members of the current Presidential Family. On 17 October, 1444, Skya gave birth to a single daughter (Sky), though Sky was born weak and frail, she would grow stronger as she approached her tenth birthday; inheriting the strong magic which both of her parents possessed, she would eventually become one of the strongest warriors of the Republic of Corthe Star.

Appearance
Like most standard Native Americans of her specific tribe, Skya has a slightly-tanned skin complexion, flowing, messy pure snow-white hair and dull blue-colored eyes. Her standard attire consisted of a deer hide dress, with porcupine quills, feathers, shells, and naturally sourced paint decorating it; she also wore moccasins, which were sewed together out of deer hide.

Personality
As wild and free as the wind which buffeted the plains area of her unconquered homeland, Skya is a kind and warm-hearted soul; the very opposite of the militaristic Sora (who relied on interpreters from her homeland to put her feelings into words). This is reflected in their methods, as Skya had lived through several wars as a young child; though she experienced the hardship of losing her mother (at age four), the memory of her mother`s death seared into her brain, she didn`t resent the Native American who killed her. Being a pacifist herself, she held sympathy and respect towards people (like herself) who didn`t resent other people for killing members of their family; while not necessarily militarist herself, she was willing (as Merlin put it) to destroy anybody who harmed her new family. Her father died when she was eighteen in 10 December, 1438, she mourned his death by planting a traditional Native American Tree which she infused with her own magical energy; by doing so, she turned it into something akin to a magical forcefield bubble, which still protects the Republic to this day.
